Re: Housing upgrades
- House storage upgrades are not yet coded (haven't yet started, though they should be ready by next saturday since it's the item for the donation bonus). More details will be available then.
- Moving a house that was sunken and then floats in the air is ok now (fixed yesterday).
- For green acres, you will still need the available house slots to place there. Well, there's also the housing instances and right now i'm not sure if it's worth doing both these optins (buyable land in green acres, as well as the buyable/rentable land which can be either in green acres or an island in magda, basically to select what kind of setting you'd like, grass/sand/snow...)
- House resizing: You don't have to empty it, now if you are just making it bigger it's not a problem, the existing design will just be in the north-west corner of the bigger house, with some extra dirt-tile padding on the south and west. Making smaller in any direction will do the following to all stuff that is no longer inside the house (that got trimmed on either the south or east side): items are unlocked and placed in the moving crate, addons of which any tile would be clipped are destroyed and deed placed in the moving crate (that includes bees), personal spawners & teleporter tiles are a bit north or west so that they are still in the house.
- There was a bug yesterday, yeah a player lost all of the house's contents but i restored that a few hours later, should be all safe to resize.

Re: Housing upgrades
Once the new lands come in can we just move an existing house we own to the new lands with house moving option or do we have to drop the house and re place it in new lands ?

Re: Housing upgrades
Used +500 storage deed today, somehow my 1st house won't let me add more item in but 2nd works ok for the time being. There are more than 1k storage space left available for my 1st house, but system says it'll exceed limit of secured items in the house. Anyone else has the same issue? Ticket already sent BTW. 

Re: Housing upgrades
I have just restarted the server with a fix for this bug, should be working now.

Re: Housing upgrades
Thanks +C, I logged back and it seems the issue remains. Here are some screenshots.+Colibri wrote:I have just restarted the server with a fix for this bug, should be working now.
- My house storage details:
No negative display now, however AVAILABLE STORAGE section shows wrong figures (585/1076). House total capacity is 1576, available account storage bonus is 500 (since 0 used by other houses), so total house storage should be 1576+500=2076 not 1576-500=1076, and total available house storage should be 2076-491=1585 not 1076-491=585.

- Besides of display information, I still can't secure items in the house nor adding items in the existing secured containers even though it shows there are plenty available space.


Could you have another look of my issue +C? Thanks again.

Re: Housing upgrades
Now my 2nd house has the exact same issue as well, it was working just half an hour ago after the reboot. I can only take things out from both of my houses, this is getting annoying 

Re: Housing upgrades
There was another bug, it's fixed with today's restart.
